hello ! my 1 yr. old daughter is not eating at all. she was sick for the past 4-5 months and was also hospitalised so she was on medications for quite some time now. but it seems she has lost all her intest in food. i am so depressed as she has reached the 25th percentile in weight as compared to the 75th percentile she was in when she was well and eating. i have no idea what to do. does someone have any idea how to deal with such a situation. please any tip is welcome here !!! thank u ! MEL replied. Hi Arti,

If you need more let me know Mel replied. Hi Arti,Guess I have to introduce my self,Iam Mel and living in UK
Will give you some recepies very soon ,may be 2morrow as Iam just back from work. stressed mom replied. Iam glad that you are quite releived now but all you got to do is give her space and put all in practice.
Let me know how you go,last few days my boy did not eat,he went on hunger strike and only drank juice......today he was eating as if he had never eaten in his life.....so you see they have their own good days and some bad days
Arti,try to make fruit puree,mix all food with milk and give her,I have noticed that my boy hates texture like really think soup,so try to make some stuff which is like watery as she could be teething and they love watery texture
make soup and give her
Let me know if you need any help
stressed out mom replied. My son who then was 12 months old was admitted in the hospital for not eating,I was like you going mad and he is a very thin child and below the average%,but then I let him eat whatever he wants to,as children will never go on hunger strike,your child will definately make up for all that she did not eat ,she will,all children so,leave some finger foods on height that she can reach and do not amek a reference about it,just ignore and see how she will eat,I was told by my Health visitor and I did that and yes he was happily eating when I was not eating,its tough for a mom to ignore the fussy eater but it works alot like this.....try not to get worked up as this will be sensed by your daughter and she will refuse more and will love that attention she is getting,just take away the food when she refuses and let her think that everytime i make a fuss my mom takes away food so I might as well eat.This is what I did with my son and he is eating now,he started this fussy eating from 5mths and is still carrying on but its lot better as I behave like this with him
she will eat and give what she likes,maybe she is not feeling too well ,put yourself in her shoes,think how you would feel when you are sick and just recovering........you will feel the same as well,so give her time and Iam sure she will eat and if she does not then she must be feeling ill,but as I said give her time and make her sit with the family during meal times,I saw that this worked miracles for my son,he would eat when we all ate.good luck and let me knwo how you are getting on
